Andi, I'll include the below two patches in the next batch, OK?



From: "S. P. Prasanna" <[email protected]>

Fix the problem of page protection introduced by CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA for
x86_64 architecture.  As per Andi Kleen's suggestion, the kernel text pages
are marked writeable only for a short duration to insert or remove the
breakpoints.

From: "S. P. Prasanna" <[email protected]>

Fix the problem of page protection introduced by CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. 
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA marks the text pages as read-only, hence kprobes is
unable to insert breakpoints in the kernel text.  This patch overrides the
page protection when adding or removing a probe for the i386 architecture.
